Yeah its like any sellout. Im trying to convince myself that I didnt 
sellout TOO much. 

I eventually had to spank myself for spending 16 hours a day online for no 
money. So now Ive found a way to do what I was doing anyway, and try to 
trickle some pennies from it. Im not finding the forums to spam them. Im 
finding a way to mention things in forums I was already spending way too 
much time in.

And I tell myself (and Im pretty sure its true) that Im not finding the 
cash, then selling the item. Im selling the item anyway, and just finding 
the cash after the fact. As long as I dont let the money convince me what 
is or isnt worth pitching to people then I dont feel like a sellout (please 
dont try too hard to convince me otherwise)  ;)

One of the things I pitch when consult is that people should find a subject 
they love. Then I tell them how to start a site on it and build it up for 
free or very little cost to start getting income from it. Altho I know 
thats a more acceptable thing to do, its just not me.
